The finding of a natural source for treatment of Lactose intolerance has been running into many obstacles, many ingredients showed initially with promising result in animal studies have not produced same potentials in large sample size and mutli centers human trials.

Lactose intolerance is a condition of the inability of the digestive system to digest lactose, a type of sugar found in milk and other dairy products. Chronic consumption of a probiotic may improve symptoms and decrease hydrogen production intake in lactose-intolerant patients, according to the State University of Campinas, Campinas(1).
Yogurt is a healthy foods produced by bacterial fermentation of milk. One of most common natural probiotic foods used to enhance function of digestive system may also be beneficiary for treatment of patients with Lactose intolerance. In the study of lactose intolerance in persistent diarrhoea during childhood, researchers at the The Aga Khan University suggested, a traditional rice-lentil (Khitchri) in combination of yogurt attenuated the 80% symptom of diarrhea in children with lactose intolerance(2).

Dr. Nizami SQ and professors at the Aga Khan University also said, " (the) cheap weaning diet made of locally available cereals and yogurt can be used effectively in management of secondary lactose intoleranceassociated with acute childhood diarrhoea"(3).
Furthermore, in a randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind, 5-arm crossover study on 24 lactose malabsorbers with variable degrees of lactase deficiency, conducted by joint study lead by the Federal Research Centre for Nutrition and Food, confirmed "the combined administration of freeze-dried yogurt cultures and acid lactase increases lactose digestion more than either freeze-dried yogurt cultures or acid lactase alone, and more lactose malabsorbers may be benefits from this effect"(4).

Fermented milk and fermented milk products, cultured dairy produced has been recommended to patient with lactose intolerance(5) as they are carriers of probiotics with function in improvement of digestive activity(6).
DR. Zhao XF and colleagues at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention said, "low lactose milks(fermented milk) and yogurt could reduce the LI incidence among LI children significantly"(7).

The finding of the effectiveness of fermented milk and yogurt may serve as cornerstones of pharmaceutical target for further studies as well as a potential medication for treatment of Lactose intolerance.

People with Lactose intolerance should drink the juices as much as they can depending to digestive toleration.
